 About to record a video.

 While the system is still stable, thus far setting up the SDR server hasn't been successful... so starting a fresh install of Ubuntu server to clean up the mess the make/build process has created... sigh - I'm not using a rPi - but so many guides are set up just for that platform... some of the dependencies don't seem to be available on x86

 @scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now: That's what stuff like Remarkable is for. That in between limbo stage. Not quite paper, not quite not paper. Have you used one? do you like it? I too prefer note taking on paper... and then have lots of tablets of paper in my office. I see now that you haven't.

I have a Rocketbook notebook that I take notes in and then am able to digitize quickly. Works well for me at least.

 It's 'special ' paper in that you can erase the page with a damp cloth.

I just use the notebook and erase a project worth of notes when I run out of space. Just have to make sure I never loose that pen, it's expensive to replace.

What does the pen have to do with it? you're taking a picture with your phone.

 Oh - you're using their whiteboard to write on... what's that like compared to writing on paper?

 @dashrender said in What Are You Doing Right Now: Oh - you're using their whiteboard to write on... what's that like compared to writing on paper? It's exactly like writing on paper. I have the RocketBook Core, which is basically 15 whiteboards in a smallish spiral bound notebook.

It's exactly like writing on paper. I have the RocketBook Core, which is basically 15 whiteboards in a smallish spiral bound notebook. These are pretty sweet. Thinking about getting one. I go through a crap ton of Sticky notes. This is potentially a money saver. What I really need is one as a magnetic grocery list to put on the fridge. Big time handy for us at home.

Yeah I use a ton of sticky notes too.. but the cost of this setup would still be years if not decades to over come.

I am like you with tons of notepads lying around everywhere and that drives me nuts. I think the cost will actually pay for itself after about 1.5 years (if it lasts that long). $40 doesn't go that far in the way of sticky notes and legal pads if I use them at work, home, and car.

 Debating whether to go for replacing Predictive Failure (in Online state) for one SAS HDD in RAID 10 on R520. Dell Pro Support tech stated I don't need to Offline the drive. Hmmm.. not the long time procedure I remember... While debating to take their advise, currently making additional backups and migrating off the VM's that I can.

 @pmoncho said in What Are You Doing Right Now: These are pretty sweet. Thinking about getting one. I'd like to hear some real world experiences with one before I go and grab one. One of the considerations I have is the Uni-Taskermindset. It replaces a notebook/pad/sticky note, but what else can it do really? Is this feature set available via an iOS or Android product stream? If you spend for the 'better' accessories - are you not in the realm of an iPad Pro?Of course - the screen visibility and battery life has a number of benefits.

While it acts like just a paper/pen situation, based on how well scanning works, the Phone app seems to play a big part for uploading/organizing the pages. Maybe @travisdh1 can give us some of the pros and cons of the app. Will check more on it later tonight. It seems the value depends on its reuse longevity.
